Hmmmmm!
Maybe we will never know.

A guy up the road was tuning a VW with performance parts and the car went up in flames. OUCH.

It was not his, he does it for a living. Try and explain that to the customer.


Being a good neighbor I emailed him the photos and told him he would find it funny in a few years even though we thought it was funny then. He has not spoken to me since, I think he inhaled too much smoke and it damaged his brain.

At least he got his driveway paved and a new garage door out of it.
